Will you make room? Here, tHere, and everyWHere.

We live in a time when many in our community are experiencing societal anguish in response to events that de-value lives and lack compassion. As people of all ages bear witness to this, they wonder, What is there to be happy about?

Each Joy in Jesus lesson speaks to the different “rooms in life,” and shows how to find joy in all circumstances. Jesus’ joy is boundless, and there is great healing and freedom in this truth!

Cross Culture VBS immerses your kids in the sights, sounds, and tastes of a new unique culture every year…showcasing how Christians in other countries live out their faith and magnifying God’s love for the whole world!

Group’s Holy Land Adventure VBS is the one-of-a-kind Bible Times VBS!

Psalm 23 is the theme and Bible memory focus of this VBS. This beloved Psalm shares that we can be confidence in trusting our Lord, who is with us no matter what. New in 2016, Science in the Sheep Pen demonstrates Bible truths through science fun.

No one is left out at Deep Sea Discovery. An optional site, Breakaway Bay, is a special space where kids with sensory needs can experience an oasis of calm in the busy world of VBS.
